You do not use this for blending like u would with other copic markers. It lightens the area but creates a ring of darkness around the edges. Because of this, it is great for EFFECTS, such as adding texture. Think of it as using alcohal on watercolor. You can use it too lighten an area that has gotten too dark. However, to avoid the dark rings, do not leave the marker on one spot of the paper for too long and do not use a back-and-forth motion. Instead, using a flicking motion. If u wish to "blend" with it, use the tip-to-tip transfer blending technique. This technique involves two markers. You take a lighter marker (i.e colorless blender) and a darker marker and touch their tips together for a few seconds. Then take the lighter marker and use a scribbling or flicking strokes depending on the effect you want. For a more dramatic blend, use the palette transfer blendimg technique. You scribble the darker marker on a nonporous surface, such as an acrylic stamp block, and pick up the ink with the lighter marker (i.e. colorless blender) and then use either the scribbling or flickering strokes. Both of those techniques can also be used with the colored copic markers. Using the colorless blender blends from a color to white. The colorless blender can also be used as a magic eraser, except it pushes the ink instead of erasing it. If you go outside the lines, u can push the ink back toward the image. However, only do this after the ink dries, or u will just allow more ink to bleed outside the lines.
